I play bass, self taught, been playing for around 2 years on and off now. I'm pretty good all told, especially at the faster stuff.

All anyone here plays is punk, ska-punk, or any variation therof (spunk?). Well, that's a lie, I've been in a Metallica cover band, several garage grunge (yuck) things, and a one-off black metal thingumabobber. We called ourselves Satan's Little Helper. You may guess that we were not quite serious about it all. Oh, and the school swing band. Jazzy.

I've been in a band hiatus for about a year now. I'd really love to find a guitarist or two interested in playing some nice, relaxing death metal. I already know a blastbeat-friendly drummer, with an unfortunate Lars Ulrich/industrial/nu-metal obsession. But you can't have it all. I lent him In Their Darkened Shrines, he liked that at least.

i'm in the school jazz band.... which is fun. and i sing in a band that has influences that range alot... deftones,poison the well,primus,sikth,slipknot(kinda),machine head etc. its most fun.
and i'm also trying to start a death metal band with a guy i know in exeter who is a really good drummer, and my main instrument is guitar...

Well I'd hardly call what I was doing a 'band' at the moment, but three of us are working on a studio project. We used to be a band called "Thrice-Blighted", and played fairly typical melodic death/thrash until more recently when a couple of us decided we didnt like the direction of things and didnt get on with particular people. We didn't exactly found the band so we kind of had a mutiny and threw a couple people out because some of them had ideas we were not very keen on and musically, were driving us down a path we didnt identify with or like.

So, like I said, the remnants of us are busy rebuilding the band and working on some excellent new material which we plan to release as I said. And yeah, we're uh.... somewhere between Bolt Thrower and Bal Sagoth

In school I joined a nu metal band (yeah...I grew up since then :-p) called Final Divide, which eventually changed it's name to Downshock. I did vocals. I left when some guy joined who I hated (4-1 vote unfortunately ) But on the positive side, he killed the band.

Come 2001 I formed Sevas Dog (which a lot of stupid fans of a band called Otep accused us of ripping off their album Sevas Tra, but we had never fucking heard of them) The band was originally set up as a tribute/joke/spoof of anal cunt. But as time went on, we got louder and made our own pissed off sound. Broke up at the end of 2001 because we were seriously falling out with eachother, and we decided to call it a day before we fell out. (I remain best friends with the original line up to this day) (Oh, and two months ago, we talked about reforming) (last month we reformed, and are looking for a bloody drummer :-p)
(new sound of Sevas sounds like- Anaal Nathrakh, Melt Banana, Dillinger Escape Plan {even though I hate them} and when we want to, Anal Cunt :p)

Other 'joke' bands
I have a worrying habbit of creating joke bands on the spur of the moment, making a cd with 6 tracks on (recorded in some freinds bedroom with their pc so it sounds ultra shitty) only making 10 copies, and then getting rid of them.
Westfield Marshalls- Ultimate joke band, we cover nursery rhymes, and sometimes cover songs. Only in a very mocking way.
Xs- another joke band, loud as fuck, very distorted, VERY low quality, and basically just an awful racket.
Executive Relief- Shite.
Anal Fireball- a mockery of all the porno grind bands in the world. As they all need the piss taking out of them. (Even though I like them :-p)

And Orchid.
Orchid is an ambient, electronic, weird, noisy thingymajig that I set up with my best friend.
As I'm writing this I am setting up a page on Soundclick. But I might not tell you guys about it, because the song I am putting on really worries me (into thinking that people will say MITHRAS RIP OFF!)
but trust me, it doesnt sound like it to me, it has to some people. if it sounds like it to you, then I assure you, it wasnt intended.
(and the lineup is both me and tom on guitars, and effects pedals :-p)
